Last night's Euromillions jackpot, worth 175 million Euro, was won by a single ticket bought in Ireland.

The National Lottery say it may take a few days to pinpoint exactly where the winning ticket was sold

The winning were 1, 8, 18, 19 and 39. The LUCKY STARS were 7 and 9.

 

This massive record Euromillions Irish win will make them the 94th richest person in the country.

They leap frog on to Ireland's rich list ahead of Enya who has 165 million. The person will be 70 places higher on the rich list than their Euromullions counterpart, Dolores McNamara who now languishes in 164th place.

Miriam Donohe, from the National Lottery says, despite the excitement, the person does need to stay calm.

She said: 'If you're the holder of this golden ticket, it's so important to keep it safe at all costs.

'Sign the back of it and contact us as soon as possible because your life as of now has changed forever.'

Aside from the pressure of keeping the ticket and maybe their identity safe, the winner of this life changing amount could start dreaming of a few things they could buy.

If international travel is on their wishlist, they could do it in style. A new Lear jet that seats nine people costs only 13.5 million, leaving plenty of change to decide what to buy when they get to their destinations.
